Hiya!

Anyone know what's the best tool for converting m4a's to mp3's??

I like this: dBpowerAMP Music Converter.

Actually, it is a bit coincidence that you happen to ask this now. Just a few days ago I got a demo from my Australian friend who has a home studio. It was encoded in m4a format. (Just don't tell me that you got the files from Finland...)

I wanted to include the demo in my MC library and found that the format was not working very well with MC. I converted the files with dBpowerAMP. I chose APE format because I didn't want to transcode to another lossy format.

And if dbPowerAmp doesn't work for you, I've had success using FooBar 2000 (although there was a bit a learning curve).

Best,
brad

Thanks for that chaps!

I will give DBPowerAmp a whirl.

I am from Australia too (well not right now, currently working in San Diego for 2 months...)

Thanks for yer help...

Yeah, that I meant by "coincidence".

Cheers from Finland.
